to the people talking about a split, don't you think we need to wait till the end of the week when everything is turned on? lol. been following COGNITIVE for a while and this is exactly what was planned, great job Garrett. personally I can't wait until the fall

Yeah let's not rush things. Let's keep as many things constant as possible, then in a week or two we can reevaluate whether a split would be really beneficial. (My thoughts are if we go over 2btc per share a split would be beneficial).

Another option would be to create a microshares asset for Cognitive, where you can purchase down to 1% of a share.

And thanks for the kudos, igba

This Saturday, I proudly opened the box containing one of our two Avalon miners that we have purchases using a total of 900 of our treasury shares. The second Avalon will be mailed to us tomorrow and online by the end of the week!

Additionally, BFL is making great progress in shipping their SC Singles, which we have a very early pre-order for seven of! These units run at ~60gh/s each.

Our current hashrate: 83 gh/s

Our hashrate at the end of the week: 153 gh/s

Our hashrate after the BFL units are delivered (soon): 573 gh/s

Our hashrate after the BFL and Avalon chips are delivered (September): 960 gh/s

In addition to all of this good news: as of last week Cognitive has paid out OVER 1000 bitcoins in dividends! For our current inventory and total dividend history you can always refer to http://cognitivemining.com/

I apologize for the confusion on my part there, I had thought you were still thinking about the new offer of 150 shares instead of 300.

No, I thought I made it clear but if not, my fault.

Anyway I have a policy of not changing the price on a deal after it is accepted. That is a questionable act in my book for both parties involved.

Thanks.

But I guess you haven't accepted this deal until early today, like when the share price reach like 0.6/share. I guess things change fast, if you missed the deal that day that time, you missed it.

No, I had accepted it before but only posted when I did to make a point about something else. Also I would have just dropped it but there was some confusion about the deal so I cleared up some FUD that was posted in this thread.

Ironic how the report of this deal helped move the stock price up, and that price going up meant that the deal could not happen.

Oh well. Live and learn.

Perhaps you'd reconsider selling for straight BTC instead. Given that our treasury shares are now sold, we should be brimming with hardware funds.

we were able to work something out in the end. also i bought a significant amount of more stock to assist in kicking that wall down.

Prices seem to move more irrationally (to the benefit of current holders) following a split, no? Didn't the same increase in hashpower move bASIC from .6 to 1.1btc (pre-split), then from like .35 to .8 (post split), even though the magnitude of the impact was almost tenfold the later time?

Current price is already irrational.

Maybe so, but that's why it's called an investment, price may not always be irrational. Not to mention this is a virtual currency, whos to say what is rational? I've got faith in Garrett's ability to manage this asset, and the near months will show the hard work of planning both from him and the shareholders. Grab your hard hat because we might be breaking some ceilings.

As far as the stock split goes, I honestly thought the increased liquidity would be detrimental to bASIC's share price, but we all saw what happened. And unless I'm mistaken, burnside worked with creativex to fix the charts/dividends/etc.

EDIT: Any emails or hints as to when those 7 BFL rigs are going to ship? Just sometime soon?

why are people buying this for .91BTC. It's not profitable even with 960gh/s now which we don't have. That's 92Mh/s per .91BTC share.

I really liked this asset and have been holding it since GLBSE times, but had to sell now, cause this price is just too high :-) Garett is doing a great job for Cognitive and I hope all well for his investors. Good luck!

I don't get why people don't understand why the price is not set only by the ROI or by the share_price/dividends. I think the bitcoin world need trust and well managed companies. That's why the price is high and if it is too high, the market will do his work.

I wish I had bought the shares a few weeks ago when I was asking myself if I should or not -.-
